Welcome to the Dusty Data Collaboration Project!
Below are some member projects looking for writing/collaboration help this summer.
Dr. Rebecca Allen (rsallen@ua.edu)
- UMC Geriatrics Clinic Objective and Subjective Health Literacy: this project will describe the relation between subjective health literacy and objective health literacy/numeracy as measured by the Newest Vital Sign instrument. We will use longitudinal data since the introduction of the NVS in about 2018.
- Palliative Care Literacy – Dr. Amy Albright’s Dissertation data: Two MTurk studies examine palliative care knowledge as measured by the Merz and Carpenter instrument. The second study builds upon this and examines attitudes toward medical aid in dying/death with dignity.
Would love to have social work collaborators and biostats help is ALWAYS appreciated!
Goal: Submit those manuscripts!
Dr. Ian M McDonough (immcdonough@ua.edu)
- The Alabama Brain Study on Risk for Dementia has brain imaging, cognitive, psychosocial, and health data in middle-aged and older adults. From this data set, I would like to publish papers on brain structure and function are related to a) discrimination, b) subjective memory concerns, c) dementia risk, d) finance/math ability.
I can analyze the brain data, but I don’t have time to write all of the Intro and Discussion, so could use some help. If anyone wants to learn how to analyze brain data, I can teach them how we do it and they could help in that aspect too.
Goal: Submit those manuscripts!
Dr. JoAnn Oliver (joliver@ua.edu)
- Colorectal Cancer Screening and Genetic testing knowledge – Quantitative and Qualitative data
- Health Care provider interview data – about cancer screening – Qualitative Data
I would like assistance with analyzing data and manuscript development. All disciplines are welcome to assist.
Goal: Submit those manuscripts!
